Of course they cheat, lie and steal. That’s the only way they win an election.
The problem with cheating and stealing to win elections is, as the article states, it undermines the legitimacy of the office holder placed into office under such circumstances, and therefore the laws that are produced.
My fear right now is that the Democrats are so power mad and power hungry that they don’t realize that they are dragging the nation directly towards a frightning abyss. IMHO, unless something changes and soon, we’re looking at the inevitability of political assassinations. And I’m not talking about some nutcase kid with a handgun that decides to gain noteriety by popping a Congressman (like what happened with Gabby Giffords), but more along the lines of a fed up farmer who, feeling nothing to lose by it, decides to take out a politician or judge (being redundant there, probably) with a scoped hunting rifle.
The consequences of THAT happening, let alone becoming a trend, are damn near inconceivable. It would be catastrophic, we’d have exactly the same sort of outcome Robert E. Lee avoided by surrendering the Army of Northern Virginia to Grant and telling his boys to accept defeat, go home and live in peace.
But I feel, deep in my bones, we’re on the verge of that happening. I fear for my country, but perhaps more importantly I fear for my children ...
